Questions regarding the miles earning debit cards that earn at a ratio of 1 mile per 2 dollars spent:

When you make a purchase using a mileage earning debit card do you hit "ATM" or "credit" for the purchase????

It's not really "ATM", correct, because the card has a Visa or MC logo on it, right?

If you need to hit "credit", please continue reading my questions below:

If you go to the post office and buy a $600 money order using your mileage earning debit card (the P.O. allows you to buy money orders only using debit cards, no credit cards allowed for known reasons!), how many miles do you get for the transaction?

If you go to the supermarket and buy a $0.25 candy bar and they allow you to get $50 cash back for a debit transaction meaning a total purchase of $50.25, how many miles do you get for the transaction with your miles earning debit card?
